Updated through Bolt's post. Starting on the three new topics now (Catchphrase and QotY are being combined b/c of their similarity).

Also, this is a Pokemon Awards show, not a PokeGym Awards show. It's simply being hosted on PokeGym since a lot fo the Pokemon community communicats here.

New catatgories being updated as we speak!

EDIT: Standings are completely updated. Check the first post to see where everyone stands!

Jason Peirce is obviosly one of the best players. And its even his rookie season! In his first 2 cities he got 1st and 2nd against people that have went to Worlds many times. (He even used Lunasol). Then he won another with Raieggs. Then he used Delta to Regs and went undefeated, even in the top cut!!!! He got 2nd at Nats and has gotten 4, 500 dollars on his first year of Pokemon. Hes obviously the R.O.K. I'll bet you'll never see a rookie as good as him.

As we approach the midway point, I notice posts are slowing down. I'll be adding a section in on the main post that states that if seven days goes by with any nominations, the nomination period will be closed. I don't like to drag things out unless absolutely necessary. Also, any ties will be diplomatically broken by my own votes (as I haven't voted yet and don't plan to unless neccessary). Enjoy!
